Garden Scramble



A tasty and healthy quick dish. Good for breakfast or as a anytime snack/ meal.

1/2 cup of your favourite vegetables finely chopped ( can use onions, tomatoes, carrots, cabbage, cauliflower, capsicum, red/ yellow peppers, mushrooms, spring onions,beans, green peas)
2 eggs ( or egg whites , as I have used)
finely chopped green chillies, garlic, ginger as per taste
1 tsp oil
salt pepper to taste.


Heat the oil non stick pan. add in green chillies, ginger and garlic. Saute till it gives off an aroma. Add in the vegetables, stir , cover and cook for a minute. Add in the salt and pepper. Mix well. Beat the eggs and add 1 tbsp water.Pour it into the vegetables mixture, leave for a minute and then slowly break up the egg mixture and scramble it.

Serve hot with toasted bread or rotis/ parathas.

You can also cook this as a roadside omlette by cooking the vegetables and then mixing it with the beaten eggs. Omit the water while beating the eggs. Then line the pan with chopped up bread / croutons , pouring the vegetable and egg mixture on it , covering and cooking it.

This can be eaten on its own.
